2001 Norwegian Second Division


The 2001 2. Divisjon was the third highest football (soccer) league for men in Norway.

26 games were played in 4 groups—changed from the 8 groups in the 2000 season—with 3 points given for wins and 1 for draws. Tollnes, Åsane, Oslo Øst and Lørenskog were promoted to the First Division. Number twelve, thirteen and fourteen were relegated to the 3. Divisjon. The winning teams from each of the 24 groups in the 3. Divisjon each faced a winning team from another group in a playoff match, resulting in 12 playoff winners which were promoted to the 2. Divisjon.
